CLIENT STORY

Early detection of thyroid cancer

Background

Our client was recommended by a friend to visit Preventicum for their first health assessment following their 50th birthday.

Clinical findings

During her ultrasound scans, our Sonographer observed a thyroid nodule.

Next steps

A referral was made for further investigations under the care of an Endocrinologist where a biopsy confirmed this was papillary thyroid carcinoma (thyroid cancer). We were delighted to hear that our client underwent successful thyroid surgery and is now looking forward to returning to Preventicum for her next annual health assessment.
